'Blow on forearm'
Sagnol may have suffered a recurrence of an injury he
sustained with his club FC Bayern München last season. "I got a blow on the forearm in the same place I broke my arm four months ago with Bayern," Sagnol said. "I still don't know if it's broken again."
Ankle injury
Gallas replaced Sagnol at right-back straight after half-time but hurt his ankle as he tackled a Swiss player and had to leave the pitch in the dying seconds of the match. France play Greece in the quarter-finals on Friday.
